From New York Times bestselling author Kathleen E. Woodiwiss comes one of her most iconic and beloved romances of all time....

A pact is sealed in secret behind the foreboding walls of Newgate Prison. In return for one night of unparalleled pleasure, a dashing condemned criminal consents to wed a beautiful heiress, thereby rescuing her from an impending and abhorred arranged union.

But in the fading echoes of hollow wedding vows, a solemn promise is broken, as a sensuous free spirit takes flight to a lush Caribbean paradise, abandoning the stranger she married to face the gallows unfulfilled.

Ruark Beauchamp’s destiny is now eternally intertwined with that of the tempestuous, intoxicating Shanna. He will be free...and he will find her. For no iron ever forged can imprison his resolute passion. And no hangman’s noose will keep Ruark from the bride—and ecstasy—that he craves.

I have loved this book since it first came out. I've read it many times. The story is still epic and sweeping & one of the best. However, the performance of this novel was just horrible. The voices given to various characters was awful. Shanna & Ruark were both done in about the worst way ever. Shanna was presented as an old fuddy-duddy. Ruark's "accent" was a mixture of things, as if the reader couldn't decide just what to do with it. Her pronunciations of names was all over the place, sometimes different within a single paragraph. Many of the other accents were just as bad; sometimes garbled to the point of being indecipherable. There were words missing in some places, as if she forgot to read the last word or two of a sentence. (This only happened 3-4 times but it was distracting.)
It was pretty hard to get through, given how terrible it was. I struggled through it and finished it, but it was such a disappointment. The story pulled it through, barely. This could have been such a great audio book if the reader had been chosen carefully. I can't imagine what possessed them to choose this woman.

Still one of the best bodice-rippers ever, but...

I read this back in the early 80's and love the story. While I'm quite sure the narrator would be fine with another story, her pronunciation of Ruark Beauchamp "Roo-ark Beechim" set my teeth on edge and several times she pronouncesShanna as "Shawna". Ugh. Also, she sounds like she's at least in her 50's, so not the best choice for this type of romance novel.
I usually listen to a story straight through but had to take days between listens just to get through it. If I could return it, I would, as I will definitely not be listening to it again. Lesson learned - Do not preorder books with unknown narrator. I will in the future wait and listen to the sample before purchasing.

Excellent story but the narration ruins it

I love this author, own all her books and have reread them many times. I waited months to get the Audible version. This particular book is one of my personal favorites. The story is wonderful! That said, I have never been so disappointed. The narrator spoiled the whole experience for me. Her accents were terrible, her male voices wrong and Shanna sounded like an old woman not the energetic 20-something she is in the book. I was so distracted by the poor narration that I had to force myself to finish. I could never just get into the wonderful story. I’ve listened to this narrator before and those were well done. This was not the book for her to read. Someone made the wrong choice and Woodiwiss’ story deserves better.

Love this author!

I enjoyed reading this story more than 40 years ago. This time I listened to a wonderful narration by Robin Miles and enjoyed it all over again.

Oldie but a goodie!

I love this book and was so excited it was finally available. Then was shocked by the performance I’ve spent a lot of time backing up because I can’t understand what is being said. You killed this book it’s definitely cringe worthy. She might do good for other types of stories but not for young characters. It’s like grandma is telling it. 😢 We need a do over. This story, this book deserves a do over!!!

Disappointed

Ruark Beauchamp name is said incorrectly. Beauchamp is a French, should not be pronounced Beachum! It should be pronounced Beau-Champ. Ruark is not two syllable, it should just be one syllable sounding more like rook. That's how I always read it.

Pronounced incorrectly

The narrator does a fine job with the different accents in the story. She does have a deep voice, however, she does not sound like “an old lady,” The story is rich and detailed. I almost didn’t give this book a try based on the narration complaints.

Don’t agree with comments on narrator.
